The period drama life is almost within reach…


It’s not every day that a historic country estate hits the market – and the Bridgerton-style Beach House Estate is a real gem. Tucked away in a charming hamlet, it overlooks Herefordshire’s Golden Valley, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty just north of Bath.

Beach House Estate: This Bridgerton-Style Home Is Up For Sale

Bath country estate with maze

Just minutes away from the city of Bath, this unique estate commands breathtaking views of the Herefordshire countryside and the Golden Valley, a picture-perfect expanse of land that fills with daffodils every spring. When it comes to location, you can’t ask for much more – and that’s just the beginning.

Living room with cream sofas, fireplace and chandelier

The estate comprises a jaw-dropping 57 acres of grounds, parkland and farmland, with a Grade II listed main house and six further properties scattered throughout. This includes guest cottages, a handsome Dower House, and a games room with a bar and cinema.

Dining room with navy velvet chairs and a fireplace

At the heart of it all is, of course, the main house, which has been carefully refurbished to provide a host of modern luxuries. An elegant reception hall leads into a formal drawing room complete with an open fireplace, a huge bay window and intricate cornicing, while standing opposite is a dining room adorned with Gainsborough silk wall coverings.

Kitchen with white shaker cabinets and a marble-topped island

The kitchen is particularly impressive, kitted out with Clive Christian fittings and a marble-topped island. Just next door is a gorgeous orangery (currently serving as a sitting room/dining area) which leads onto a large outdoor terrace. You’ll also spot a laundry room, a handy scullery kitchen and a study, plus another large living room overlooking the garden.

Orangery with floor tiles and chandelier

Upstairs, there’s a library and two bedroom suites, with four additional bedroom suites on the second floor (one of which is, in fact, set up as a soft play room). The real show-stopper is the principal suite, which encompasses a beautiful double dressing area and a Clive Christian bathroom. Across the landing, there’s a second huge dressing room complete with floor-to-ceiling mirrors and a marble-topped central cabinet.

The opulence continues in the estate’s Grade II listed Dower House, which contains a formal drawing room, a formal living room and two further sitting rooms alongside a large kitchen and five spacious bedrooms. The property even boasts its own front garden, an enclosed parking area, and a coach house at the rear.

Games room with wooden floors and a pool table

As if all of this wasn’t enough, there are the grounds to explore: you can expect manicured lawns, sprawling terraces and a charming kitchen garden, plus two greenhouses, an orchard and a tennis court. You’ll even spot a willow tree reaching over a duck pond fed by a natural spring. It’s the ultimate countryside fantasy made thrillingly real – if you’ve got £13.95 million to spare.
